New Addition to the Major Family

On Tuesday, December 30th 2008, I became the proud new owner of this beautiful baby! It is an '03 Honda 919. This is not a sport bike nor a standard. Its rider sits more upright than the traditional sport bike (i.e. not hugging the gas tank) while having more power and good looks compared to a standard style motorcycle.

Although gas prices have been lower lately, I know that this too shall pass and we'll be paying more eventually. Between my recently much shortened commute and improved mpg (40 or so) vehicle purchase, I am looking forward to the warm weather that will be here in a few (maybe several) months.

This picture above would've looked cooler if I took the time to clean the mirror...

P.S. I drove this baby home from Wyoming, MI and it was really flippin' cold on the M6 highway!
